welcome aboard

did this condition start before or after the change in wires and plugs? if it was before it could be a possible MAF issue. if it was after, you may have gotten some plug wires mixed up. look into changing your fuel filter, cleaning out your TB, and determine whether or not the gas station where you get fuel from has good quality or not.

i just got the car at first it was hard o start when it was hot and the cooling fans wouldnt cum on. i jiggled the engine temp sensor and that stopped. the maf sensor connector was corrode cause u could tap it and the car wood stall i jiggled it and it quit then i replaced all those ignition parts. the condition i have used to start when i would get on the car in traffic and then i would park for work and start again and it would run fine it did it a few times and now it does that all the time idles so rough that you can feel sitting in car when u put in drive it wants to die. also misses out of the exhaust really bad like putputput . changed my fuel filter clean my TB whats that?
